kb, these are fanatics filled with hate. I really doubt that "social pressure" by killing family members will change their minds. Also, how many Mideast states would agree to do this? Do you really believe that our "friends" the Saudis did not know that wealthy Saudi citizens were financing terrorists? The Saudi princes are scared of being toppled by the fanatics, so they turned a blind eye to bin Laden's "request" for funds from some wealthy Saudis. A technique called "protection money" by the mafia. The last thing they will do is contract to kill terrorist families, and SA is a friendly country. It's even less likely that the Palestinians, Syrians, Libyans, Lebanese, etc. would do it. Sam Cohen has a much more effective solution than social pressure.
